Privacy Policy

Last Updated 3/21/22:

Thank you for your interest in New Jersey School of Dramatic Arts (“NJSDA”) and our NJSDA website located at https://njactors.org/ or any other site we may utilize for payment (the “Websites”) and our associated events and performance arts teaching services. Your use of the NJSDA services, through the Websites or otherwise, is subject to this Privacy Policy. The NJSDA services and Websites are collectively referred to in this Privacy Policy as the “Service.” We are pleased to provide this privacy policy to inform you of our practices with respect to how we collect and use personally identifiable information in connection with your use of the Service.

Information We Collect

The analytics data that we may regularly collect about visitors to the Websites (e.g., IP address, browser type, pages accessed, duration of visit, etc.) does not necessarily enable us to personally identify you, and that is not our intention. We do collect personally identifiable information about you, such as your name and phone number, when you voluntarily provide it by registering with us or using or paying for the Service. To facilitate your use of the Service, we may automatically collect certain types of information when you access or use the Service. In order to collect this data, we may utilize automated tools and files such as “cookies.” These automated tools and files may reside on our servers or on your computer or device. If you restrict our ability to use automated tools and files, your ability to access and use all or part of the Service may be limited or disabled completely. We also collect statistical data regarding your use of the Service. We also may collect the following categories of personal information from you when you register for the Service: Identifiers, including name, alias, postal address, email address, phone number, account name, IP address, and other similar identifiers.

Use of Information

We use your personally identifiable information primarily to provide you with the Service, facilitate your payment for the Service, and to provide customized content on the Service that is of interest to you. The information is also used to verify your authority to access the Service, to contact you when reasonably necessary, and for the purpose of improving our products and services.

Controlling Your Personal Information

We may make available to users messaging and other interactive features. You should be aware that when you voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (e.g. user name, e-mail address) to third parties via the Service, that information, along with any substantive information disclosed in your communication, can be collected, correlated, and used by third parties. Such activities are beyond the control of NJSDA.

Disclosure

We may disclose your personal information to third parties from time to time in our sole discretion. For this reason, you should not disclose information to us that you do not want shared with third parties. In addition to the forgoing, we will disclose your personally identifiable information as it believes is reasonably necessary to comply with law, regulation or other governmental authority or to prevent harm to yourself or others. We may also contract with various third parties who help us provide and maintain the Service. For example, we use a third party to host the Websites, the Service and associated databases, and may subcontract out production, fulfillment, or other operations. In these cases, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent such third parties from disclosing your personal information, except for the purpose of providing the services in question. Finally, we may disclose your personally identifiable information upon a transferor sale to another entity of all or substantially all of NJSDA’s assets related to the Service, or upon any bankruptcy or other corporate reorganization.

Security

Our Service uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content. You can recognize an encrypted connection in your browser’s address line when it changes from “http://” to “https://” and the lock icon is displayed in your browser’s address bar.

Links

For your convenience, we may provide links to certain third party websites or referrals to certain third parties’ products or services. If you choose to visit a third party’s website or use its products or services, please be aware that the third party’s privacy policy, and not the NJSDA privacy policy, will govern your activities and any information you disclose while interacting with the third party.

Collection of Information From Children

We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information relating to children. In the event that we learn that we have collected personally identifiable information from anyone under 13 years of age without prior parental consent, we will take steps to promptly delete such information.

Notification

If an electronic or physical security incident is suspected to have resulted in the loss of your data, NJSDA will make notifications to you and to governmental agencies as required under applicable law.

Policy Changes

NJSDA reserves the right to change this privacy policy, and will post any revisions on the Service. We encourage you to review this policy regularly for any changes. Your continued use of the Service will be subject to the then-current privacy policy.

International Visitors and Customers

The Service is hosted in the United States. If you are visiting from the European Union (EU) or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from U.S. law, please note that you are transferring your personal data to the United States which does not have the same data protection laws as the EU and by providing your personal data you consent to:

  1. The use of your personal data for the purposes identified above in accordance with this Privacy Policy; and

  2.  The transfer of your personal data to the United States as indicated above.
